Supporting more languages

[MTschannett]

Hi, Just out of curiosity, how hard would it be support another language for example Scheme?

Hi, support for other languages can be added in a similar way to Emacs by defining a major mode for the language and some hook functions that perform language-specific configurations on the editor (like syntax patterns). You can find some examples under modules/zem/progmodes/. Generally speaking new languages can be added with just scheme scripts without recompiling the editor itself.

OK that sounds nice. I don't have expirience with Emacs major mode creation, but I definitly check this out.

Thank you
